Australian Senate, last sitting of the year. No idea when the Social Media Ban debate is kicking off.
If anyone’s keen, feel free to give a live run-down of anything interesting in this thread.
(sorry about all the edits, just trying to get a decent thumbnail: )
We’re on social media right now. It’s not the big for-profit guys who lose out with that sort of legislation. It’s smaller guys, including those run for the fun of it.
Yeah, and federates socmed can easily assume responsibility for messages by not having mass sign up and moving to a trusted users, largely self hosted base. Lemmy is designed around replacing reddit with all the massive flaws of that.
I mean tell me you think lemmy.world is contributing to the world haha.
you could easily assume legal responsibility for what you published under a slightly different model where you only hosted your own content/the content of trusted users.
I literally don’t know, because federation issues over the last 12 months or so have meant I never see their content in my feed. But before that? Yes, it definitely was. Certainly more than ML and hexbear. Or Reddit.
